Right Eye Blurry After Lasik, Is This Normal? (photo)

if you overwear contacts, your eye is starved of oxygen, so new abnormal blood vessels grow into your cornea to supply it with oxygen. then during the LASIK procedure, when the flap is cut into your cornea, these blood vessels can bleed. 

 

even if you don't have abnormal blood vessels, it's necessary to jack up the pressure in your eye to way pass normal to make a LASIK flap or cut a flap w a laser, so this can also cause your normal blood vessels to explode

 

this is why you may have bleeding during your LASIK or IntraLase procedure

 

this doesn't happen in LASEK, as there is no flap cut during this newer procedure

 

your surgeon can also use iopidine to constrict the blood vessels to prevent bleeding during LASIK, but perhaps he forgot to do that, which is not really a big deal, it's just cosmetic anyway, and will resolve in a week or two (as long as no blood got under the flap, which can cause inflammation)

The spec of blood is of absolutely no concern. It is absolutely not a sign of something gone wrong during the procedure.I am glad your vision is better that before the surgery. You should see further small improvements over the next few weeks just as your doctor told you.

You should definitely ask this question of your eye care provider but it appears to be a normal bruise-like occurrence that will fade and disappear over the next couple weeks without any need for added treatment.
